  <Tab title="🚀 Quickstart">
    <Steps>
      <Step title="Create an integration">
        In Nango ([free signup](https://app.nango.dev)), go to [Integrations](https://app.nango.dev/dev/integrations) -> _Configure New Integration_ -> _TikTok Personal_.  Nango doesn't provide a test OAuth app for TikTok Personal yet. You’ll need to set up your own by following these [instructions](#🧑%E2%80%8D💻-oauth-app-setup). After that, make sure to add the OAuth client ID, secret, and scopes in the integration settings in Nango.
      </Step>
      <Step title="Authorize TikTok Personal">
        Go to [Connections](https://app.nango.dev/dev/connections) -> _Add Test Connection_ -> _Authorize_, then log in to TikTok. Later, you'll let your users do the same directly from your app.
      </Step>
      <Step title="Call the TikTok Personal API">
        Let's make your first request to the TikTok Personal API (fetch user info). Replace the placeholders below with your [secret key](https://app.nango.dev/dev/environment-settings), [integration ID](https://app.nango.dev/dev/integrations), and [connection ID](https://app.nango.dev/dev/connections):
        <Tabs>
            <Tab title="cURL">

                ```bash
                curl "https://api.nango.dev/proxy/v2/user/info/?fields=open_id,union_id,avatar_url" \
                  -H "Authorization: Bearer <NANGO-SECRET-KEY>" \
                  -H "Provider-Config-Key: <INTEGRATION-ID>" \
                  -H "Connection-Id: <CONNECTION-ID>"
                ```

            </Tab>

            <Tab title="Node">

            Install Nango's backend SDK with `npm i @nangohq/node`. Then run:

            ```typescript
            import { Nango } from '@nangohq/node';

            const nango = new Nango({ secretKey: '<NANGO-SECRET-KEY>' });

            const res = await nango.get({
                endpoint: '/v2/user/info/',
                providerConfigKey: '<INTEGRATION-ID>',
                connectionId: '<CONNECTION-ID>',
                params: {
                  fields: 'open_id,union_id,avatar_url'
                }
            });

            console.log(res.data.data);
            ```
            </Tab>


        </Tabs>

        Or fetch credentials dynamically via the [Node SDK](/reference/sdks/node#get-a-connection-with-credentials) or [API](/reference/api/connection/get).

      </Step>
    </Steps>

    ✅ You're connected! Check the [Logs](https://app.nango.dev/dev/logs) tab in Nango to inspect requests.

    Next step: [Embed the auth flow](/getting-started/quickstart/embed-in-your-app) in your app to let your users connect their TikTok accounts.
    </Tip>

  <Tab title="🧑‍💻 OAuth app setup">
   <Steps>
  <Step title="Create a TikTok Developer account">
    Go to [TikTok for Developers](https://developers.tiktok.com/) and sign in with your TikTok Developer's account. If you don't have a TikTok account, create one first.
  </Step>
  <Step title="Create & configure a TikTok app">
    1. Navigate to [My Apps](https://developers.tiktok.com/apps/) and click _Create an app_. 
    2. Select the app **Ownership**, enter a name, and select the **App Type**. Then click the **Create app** button.
    3. Fill in all your app details:
       - For **Platforms**, select **Web**
       - For **Products**, make sure you select **Login Kit**
       - In the Web **Login Kit** field, add `https://api.nango.dev/oauth/callback` as the **Redirect URL**
       -  In the **Scopes** field, select the scopes your integration requires (e.g., `user.info.basic`, `video.list`, etc.). Copy these scopes as you will need them when configuring the integration in Nango.
    4. After creating the app, go to the _Basic Information_ tab and note your **Client Key** and **Client Secret**. You will need these to configure the integration in Nango.
